Certified Engines - Volvo 5.0OSiE-J Operator's Manual

Introduction

Certified Engines

If you own an engine certified for any area where exhaust emissions are regulated by law, the following is
important:
Certification means that an engine type is inspected and approved by the authorities. The engine manufacturer
guarantees that all engines manufactured of that type correspond to the certified engine.
This places special requirements for maintenance and service as follows:
•
The maintenance and service intervals recom-
mended by Volvo Penta must be observed.
•
Only genuine Volvo Penta replacement parts
may be used.
•
The servicing of ignition, timing, and fuel injec-
tion systems must always be carried out by an
authorized Volvo Penta workshop.
•
The engine must not be modified in any way
except with accessories and service kits
approved by Volvo Penta.
•
No modifications to the exhaust pipes and air
supply ducts for the engine may be undertaken.
•
Seals may only be broken by authorized person-
nel.

Otherwise the general instructions contained in this
Operator's Manual concerning operation, service, and
maintenance must be followed.
NOTICE! Late or inadequate maintenance/service or
the use of spare parts other than Volvo
Penta original spare parts will invalidate
Volvo Penta's responsibility for the engine
specification being in accordance with the
certified variant.
Volvo Penta accepts no responsibility or liability for
any damage or costs arising due to the above.
